Major Education Resource Set to Shut Down This Week The federal Department of Education maintains an open access database of more than 2 million documents dating back to the 1960s. It will cease operating Wednesday due to DOGE cuts.

They are eliminating ERIC. This database holds more than 2 million records dating back to the 60s and is a crucial resource for educational researcher and policy experts. #highered www.governing.com/policy/major...

I have been so fortunate to spend the year working with three schools within the Madera Unified School District and this week is my last visit. They are amazing and ready to move forward, but I will miss them all! #atassessment #sblchat @solutiontree.bsky.social

Had an amazing two days in Sacramento with educators from across the country at my Standards Based Learning in Action workshop! So appreciative of their commitment to their students and LEARNING! @SolutionTreeCA @SolutionTree #atassessment

If a student is having trouble with an assignment, the goal of intervention time isn't to get through the assignment. The goal of any intervention is to improve the transferable skill that is at the root of the challenge. Homework help isn't intervention. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #InclusiveEd

When students are invested in the process, assessment becomes a catalyst for learning. #edusky #sblchat

Rely on feedback to move learners forward. Grade only when you have sufficient evidence to make a reliable judgement of proficiency and involve the students as much as possible. More feedback and less grading! #ungradingchat
